I have a similar problem & can’t reset my Logixx8 washing machine. Is there an easy way to reset or does it need to be looked at as E:23 error is not going away ? Cheers , Mark
We have been getting an 01 error message indicating a water intake problem. We disconnected the hoses, checked/cleaned the screen caps and reconnected them. Looks like the error occurs during the rinse and spin cycles. Suggestions? Thanks.
Greg,
Bosch washer error code E13 indicates that your pump is taking too long to empty. The drain filter and pump needs cleaned out. Check, clean, and run a test cycle.

My Bosch washing machines has an error code E13 come up about half way through the cycle. What does the error code mean??
Nikki,
The E18 error code on a Bosch washing machine indicates a draining time out.
This could happen for a couple of reasons:
1) blockage inside the filter
2) blockage inside the draining hose
3) problem with the pump

I have an compact washing machine from Bosch, type SE5P1B with the error code E14, it even gave E18 as well once! Hope you can help me out with what this fault means!
Parvin,
Bosch washing machine error code E23 means there is a drain issue. Have you cleared the filter, made sure the drain hose is not clogged or blocked, made sure the drain pump itself is not clogged or jammed?
-RR
I have a Bosch washing machine. It show error E23 in digital screen. I don’t now what is it? Can you help me?
Anne,
Bosch washer error code F57 means there is a communication issue and or a logic problem with the control board. Turn the power off for a few hours and see if that resets the controls.

I have a Bosch Washing machine (Model No: WAS3289EU). I get a F57 fault error code that shows in the digital screen. What is this exactly and how to resolve this problem?
